The Books In My Life

My interests are book collecting as a hobby, vocation, and/or disorder of mind. I'll be writing about books I love/collect, new, old, banned, illustrated, rare, libraries, books as art and artifact, and anything else related to books. I am expanding my focus to include galleries, libraries, archives, and museums (GLAMS) as I earned a Master's Degree in Museum Studies, Johns Hopkins University August 2020.

The Books In My Life Blog

I'm going to be posting about books. Rare books, collectible books, obscure books, illustrated books, books about books, book I love, books I own, and books I want. I suffer from a mild case of bibliomania-Level 1 hoarder is all I rate. If I had unlimited resources I’d surely rise to a more dangerous level, but I try, within reason to constantly add to my private library and various book collections. My library is not complete in any area, is not packed with high spots but to me, it is a wonderful and growing collection. With my postings I hope to share with you a love of reading, a love of books and a love of knowledge.
